I'm going to steal your thread since it's similar topic,
Approximately, how large of a vinyl sheet do I need to wrap the interior pieces mentioned above)? (Going to use the 3M Carbon Fiber wrap) |

That can't be real carbon fiber though, I think OP wants the cloth one where you'll need to use resin, polyamine hardener, and a clear coat.

Not sure where you can get stuff to do yourself, but I know that if you buy overlays that are actual carbon fiber for those trim pieces it will be around 600-700 bucks

That is the best site for carbon fabric in my opinion. Been using them for about ten years now. |
